Once upon a Sunrise

Never Forget

Fall is Here! ~ And it makes me want to create more art, I love this time of year! Recently I painted two more aceo size paintings. I hope everyone is doing great!

Fall Lineup ~ This is aceo size, 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches in size with acrylics and charcoal pencil. I'm getting in the mood for fall!

Disco Ball Moon Beam Dance ~ This is a new aceo size painting done in acrylics and black ink. This cooler weather is making me feel in a painting mood lately. I think I'll dance on the moon beams! :)

Wacky Bugs ~ So many buggy bugs this summer. I've seen all kinds of varieties, colors and shapes. I've even found 2 of the huge yellow garden spiders in the back yard. I was terrified of them until I did some research and found out they are harmless. They spin really cool webs! Anyways, this aceo (above) is inspired by all the buggy bugs of summertime! The garden spider (below) helped cure me of my arachnophobia. I still don't want to get too close to her though!

The Queen's Cats...

...left her lap to gaze out the castle window
I painted this one for the monthly nfac contest in ebay. This is 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches in pencil and acrylic. All of the entries have to start at .99 so I hope I'll get some bids. :). The theme this month was 'Kings and Queens'. Kind of a tricky one, but I like the challenge of doing themed paintings.

Complicated! ~ Does it get more complicated to make a new post in blogger, or maybe it's just me getting older. :( Anyways, I painted two more small paintings and listed them on ebay. I love trees and nature and cats, I guess I'll keep on painting 'em! I hope everyone is doing great!

It's been a while since I've made another painting but I did paint this one for the nfac contest in ebay this month. I couldn't resist since the theme was 'trees'! :) I hope everyone is having a great spring ~ Lynette

FINISHED (almost) ~ I painted this mural in the small bedroom of my daughter and her boyfriend's house. This was my housewarming gift to them. Chris likes to hunt and he is going to fix up the room like an outdoor wonderland now. Kristie took the other spare bedroom for the computer and tanning bed. :) That's their Weimeraner (sure I misspelled that) Phantom looking through the door. I was used to painting very small, but I'm looking forward to trying more landscapes on some larger canvases now!
